Dear all,
Here are the details of the event and an entry form is attached:-
Goodwood Trackday Saturday 16 April 2016
The club is delighted to announce that we will once again be running this pillar event of the club calendar. For newer members this event has long standing connections with the LMC. The grandfather of the current Lord March, was the first President of the Club, he also founded the Goodwood circuit after having driven round the old airfield perimeter track in his Lancia Aprilia in 1946. He also established a partnership to sell Lancias and even designed and commissioned a series of rakish tourer versions of the Augusta. So we need you all to come out on the track and celebrate these connections with us.
The event is designed for all members and their friends who would like to drive a little quicker than today's current overcrowded roads allow and to let their cars demonstrate just how able they are. To this effect we will be running cars in groups of just eight. On a 98dBA sound limit day we could run ten cars but the formula of eight really does work for us, with plenty of empty track available to all plus enough track time available for even the keenest to be well satisfied with the mileage they can put in.
An entry form is enclosed with this magazine or you can download it from the Forum website. It does cost a lot to put this event on; over £8 thousand and this is subsidised to a generous extent by the club so you will not find a cheaper way to enjoy your car around the track that is so special to the Lancia story in Britain.
We have trialled half day sessions over the last few years to give owners the chance to sample a trackday and hope that those who took advantage will want to book a full day this year. We are offering this option again this year, so a chance to try something new perhaps at a bargain price!
This event would be an excellent Christmas present for a Lancia driver you know well, or perhaps you needs to drop some hints!
The day is also an important social event for members and no entry fee is charged for spectators. However a donation to the club coffers of £5 for your days entertainment would be appreciated and a pot will be available for this purpose in the pavilion.
Enter early or you may miss out - some members made this mistake last year!
Enjoy Lancia
